Gordon Polinkus (1955)
Reading some of the comments from classmates bring back lots of great memories of school days in our little town. One that really jumps out at me is from Fritz Gottfried and his words about Dwight Billedeaux. The words from Fritz are right on! The man had a great talent for not only teaching but understanding each student as a seperate person. If he had favorites, and I'm sure he must have, he never showed it. Somthing that still stands out for me is when He got a group of us together and directed a short version of The Shooting of Dan McGrew. This was close to 60 years ago but I still remember the fun we had doing it and the way Mr. Billedeaux led us. I was the old miner, Ken Nelson was the narrator and memory does not allow me to recall all who played a part, if anyone recalls anything more about it please reply.thanks
